What we look for around Biggleswade

  • Plots for one to a handful of homes
  • Plots with a road frontage or a private drive
  • Unconsented plots in residential streets
  • Plots where a previous permission has lapsed

Whether your plot has full permission, outline consent or none at all, we'll look at what can realistically be built and make an offer to match.

The things that move our offer

House size

The size and type of home the plot can take sets its value.

Neighbours

Overlooking and loss of light to neighbours limit what can be built.

Services

Connections to water, power and sewers can cost more than you'd expect.

Access

Visibility splays and parking need room on smaller plots.

What England's rules mean for your land

Planning framework

Planning decisions in England follow the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026, and the local plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. Plans are reviewed periodically, which is when new housing sites are usually allocated.

Section 106 and CIL

Larger schemes often need a Section 106 agreement for affordable housing or contributions, and councils that have adopted the Community Infrastructure Levy charge it per square metre of new floorspace.

When the land isn't straightforward

The permission has lapsed

A new application is often straightforward if policy hasn't changed, and we can make that a condition of purchase.

The plot shares a drive

Shared access needs the right legal rights. Your solicitor will check the deeds.

Useful to send us

  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Any planning applications or letters
  • Photos of the land and its access
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell

What people ask us about building plots

Do you buy plots without planning permission?

Yes, usually subject to planning, so you're paid a price that reflects value with consent.

Can I sell a plot in my garden?

Yes. See our page on garden land, which covers the extra points to consider when splitting a garden.

Do I need to clear the plot before selling?

No. We buy sites as they are.
